Looking for some advice. I purchased this YM early 2000s... has been in my safe until recently when I jumped back into the Rolex “game”..

I am hoping to get some advice from the folks in the forum....

If this was your watch would you consider changing the face and or bezel to give it a more updates look?

Has anyone replaced a TT bracelet with a rubber B or Everest type strap ? I am wondering if the look would be off with the mix of gold and the non gold case?

Thanks for any input !

I keep it as is. tudor came out with a champagne dial tt this year. i think it and yours looks best on the tt bracelet.

I'd leave it the way it is. That's a sharp looking YM.

I would leave it as is, the dial color and TT bracelet are still very popular today. Nice watch. Aloha

Enjoy yours, beautiful and you don't see it often

Why change anything. It’s beautiful. I have the SS/PL from 2000 and wear it often. These YMs are classics, in my opinion.

Enjoy! It may need a service visit, though. You may want to have it looked at by a RSC.

I'm generally not a TT fan but your YM looks sublime as it is, I wouldn't change an iota.

For any precious metal piece, I'm a big proponent of keeping the band.
